The seaside in February is warm and warm, the rain is moderate, and the fields are full of life. Outside Hidden Snake City, the beans planted in autumn and spring are almost ready to be harvested. At the river mouth dozens of miles east of the city-state, the cassava fields that were expanded last year are already lush and green, and the stalks have grown very high. They will soon be able to expand again.

"Witness the Lord God! Planting kidney beans on the seaside in late autumn can add some nutrients to the fields. And if we can get soybeans that like temperature, we can fix more nutrients in the soil, and it is more suitable for planting in late autumn. After harvesting It can also squeeze out oil...it's a pity..."

Beside the bean farmland, the villagers of Mintun were weeding in the fields carrying straw baskets and wooden and stone farm tools, and occasionally praying to the Lord God. The climate on the seaside is warm and humid, and February is already like spring on the plateau. A month has passed since the shocking ceremony in the ancient Olmec holy city. The Totonak tribe around Hidden Snake City also heard the news about the "miracle" of the Holy City, and recited the name of the main **** in awe. Amidst the devout prayers, Shulot also led the Guards Corps back to Hidden Snake City, an important town in the eastern part of the seaside.

"Your Highness, when you were away, I made up a shell dance... Can you help me see it?..."

"Huh? Li Yu, although it's not cold in February on the beach, it's not easy to wear so little. What's more, I only wear shiny shells, which are all red... Ahem! I still have to deal with government affairs..."

"Your Highness! Are the colorful shells beautiful? Hehe, I am your soft and colorful clam! Don't you want to come and explore the wonderful pearls? Woohoo! Or do you just prefer your sister and let her get pregnant? Don't care about me..."

"Ahem! It's still early now..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu It's so sad, Caibao even shed tears..."

".! Just once..."

"Okay!..."

After a few rains and the wind stopped, pearls and shells were scattered on the ground, and the beauty curled up and fell asleep, as if she were really hugging the pearls. Shulot rubbed his forehead, lit up the relaxing smoke, and fell into empty thoughts. The two sisters from the Silver Crow tribe, the innocent sister Li Yao, is already three months pregnant and is raising her baby in the city. On the other hand, the mature sister Li Yu has not made any movement yet. She is a little obsessed and anxious, but she can understand it.

"Well...my fifth child..."

The divine smoke curled up, and Shulot lowered his eyes and sighed softly. During the two or three years of the Eastern Expedition, this well-polished warrior body fully demonstrated its strong energy and vitality, as well as its powerful ability to continue for future generations. In the blink of an eye, he will be the father of five children, with more to come...

"Eckart, sometimes, I have an illusion...perhaps, what I inherit is not the death of the divine wolf, but the vitality of the divine rabbit..."

"Master! The vitality of the divine rabbit is a skill that many divine descendants dream of! However, having many children and numerous descendants is indeed the divine specialty of the Mexica royal family. The first ancestor Akama Pictelli had more than ten children. The late Montezuma I had twenty or thirty children. Even your father can give you a new brother every two years... And you have many heirs, and they are all descendants of princesses from various tribes... They will definitely be of great benefit to your great cause of unifying the world!..."

"Ahem!...Hmm, okay. I'll work hard for another half month, and then I'll go out to patrol the city and check on the various ministries in the field for the last time!..."

Shulot stayed in the city for half a month, "working hard" and comforting the Silver Crow sisters. Afterwards, he took a thousand personal guards out of the city to patrol the east side. As far as the eye can see, there are fields of beans and working villagers everywhere. Wearing a light cotton robe, he patrolled the lush fields, recalling the crops of the Old World, soybeans, which were more suitable for increasing nutrients in the fields.

"God bless you! If everything goes well, Zuvalo should have crossed the island chain and reached or approached the Kamchatka Peninsula! However, the Kamchatka Peninsula is bitterly cold. He can only trade southward if he meets the Ainu or Kazuto clan. To get new crops, trade cattle. Horses and sheep can only be traded from the nomadic tribes from the coastal area of ​​Sakhalin Island. As for the craftsmen from various countries in East Asia, they have to think long term and take their time..."

Shulot's eyes flashed, his face showed anticipation, and his heart was full of waiting patience. At this moment, he didn't know that the first priest of Shenwei University whom he personally taught and the exploration captain Zuvalo who he personally appointed had given full play to his flexible bottom line and was about to bring him a huge unexpected surprise! …

"Bertard, the cultivation of cassava is very important! Increasing food production is the top priority of the Coastal Alliance, and it is also the real foundation for the kingdom. We have promoted so many civilian warriors and tribal warriors from the bottom, and we must let them Only if they have a full stomach can they fight for the Lord God with peace of mind!…”

The group of people walked and walked, and soon came to the mouth of the river where the Cuban fleet had anchored. They also saw a large area of ​​new crops, a large field of cassava with long stalks. Shulot stood at the edge of the cassava field without reaching out to touch it. He was just full of hope, staring at this highly productive field, and also at the most productive crop in the entire world at this time!

"The cassava in Hidden Snake City was first planted in Chihuaco for two years now. According to last year's report, the cassava here has initially grown and adapted to the soil and climate here, and the yield can reach 300-400 kilograms. One acre... In another month, you have to personally inspect the expansion of cassava planting! You know, the yield of this kind of cassava is far more than that, and there is a lot of room for improvement..."

"Yes! Your Highness! Black Wolf also wrote a letter and mentioned this place to me. The cassava cultivation in this area is taken care of by the flag captain Tuhuang Yu, which covers about nearly 200 acres. The Taino people on the island of Cuba, about We can harvest 500-600 kilograms per acre. Because we need to expand planting in large quantities, we did not leave too long stems for cassava and did not let it grow fully... However, UU Reading www.uukaｎshu.com The expansion of cassava planting this year is estimated to It can reach one or two thousand acres! And right at the mouth of this river, a cassava flag flag team will be officially established!..."

"God bless you, that's good! Cassava is poisonous. Whether you plant it or eat it, you really need to cultivate a group of tribes that are familiar with it first, and then spread it to the entire seashore. And when the route to Cuba is established, you can get it from Cuba's Snake Island. Another group of Taíno tribesmen were brought over to teach the villagers how to grow cassava... Once the cassava is planted, the harvest from one acre of field is at least equal to four acres of milpa, which means it can support four times the population! More What's more, it is full of poison, is not afraid of pests and birds, and its output is very stable..."

Shulot warned carefully for a moment, repeatedly emphasizing the importance of increasing grain production. Then, he continued to take hundreds of personal guards and walked eastward for more than ten miles, then came to the Sunrise River and saw Sunrise Village. He looked at the big river in the south, at the upper river channel submerged in the mountains and forests, and at the faintly visible green mountains. After a while, he looked at Bertard and smiled faintly.

"Bertard, go all the way south from here, past the second ancient city, to Pingshui City and Yuanshui City of the Sok tribe..."

"And if we can open up hundreds of miles of rivers and cross Yuanshui City, we can reach the real southern seaside and the sea on the other side!..."
